When 'worldly' people who have never set foot inside a kingdom hall say that when they see a Jehovah's Witness wearing that junk and see it on local kingdom hall property the first thing that comes to mind is the golden calf you can bet that almost every one who sees that junk except gung-ho JW's recognize the idolatry.

When elders approach you.....how do you/did you respond?
by Blackfalcon98 inso, back when you were still in, or even now (for those still in), how do you respond when the elders ask to speak with you in the back room?

I had served 'on the body' before and knew the tactics they use so I took a miniature digital recorder with me into the library and set it in the middle of the table on the day I met with two elders.

Experience in a talk
by Da.Furious inlast week we had an elder giving a talk, cant remember the title.. the thing that was of interest is the experience he gave:.
"a brother who was working in a hospital had to leave his job which was paying him good money because the nurses wanted to sleep with him and they kept putting notes for him on his desk!".
this is not the first time i hear similar experience.

I have heard JWs fucking each other more than than i have heard there was relations between work colleagues.
You barely scratched the surface of what really goes on inside a JW circuit.

I need a $3,000 loan.
Do you think the Watchtower will arrange a low interest loan for me?

What if WT will claim, that Jehovah has pulled a "Jonah and Nineveh" on them?
by prologos inwt seems to be helpless in really dealing with the failed prophecies, pending dates, overlapping groups--.. what if they declare victory, blame jehovah, in that he allowed the nations to come to their senses and not further escalate the use of weaponry, "destroying [life on] the earth"?
in a second fulfillment of .
the "repentant ninevites, disappointed jonah" bible story?

The example of Jonah & Nineveh is the only Biblical example one can use to remotely explain the "delay" of Armageddon. Otherwise, it was all simply a "false prophecy".
In either case, the WTS/GB would have to admit they were wrong, and that isn't going to happen.
DocGreat points.
They have never admitted they were wrong so why start now.

I was invited to the Kingdom Hall and nobody greeted after five meetings
by Trailer Park Pioneer in"i felt like it was "bait and switch", no "loving brotherhood :(?".
interesting question posted on yahoo, the problem is witnesses are not telling the truth.
how many times did you experience people not saying anything after some prolonged illness or separation from the kingdom hall for work reasons?

It's all about performance.
Perform and you are IN.
Don't perform and you are going to have to die at armageddon.

It will not work.
Jehovah's Witnesses would leave by the thousands if the Watchtower told them that.
Now, if the Watchtower keeps telling them that the reason the end is so close is because of all the earthquakes, tsunamis and other natural disasters that have occurred in the last year and the SONY hacking scandal, the commercial jets going down every week, the unrest between blacks and the police in the U.S. the wildfires in Australia, etc. the Jehovah's Witnesses will be all a twitter because they want to believe God is going to kill every nonJW on earth so they can have their material possessions.
How many times out in Field Service did you see sisters (and some brothers) point out a fine house and say that they wanted to move into it after Armageddon?
Jehovah's Witnesses anticipate God murdering 99.9% of the earth's inhabitants so they can live on paradise earth without having to see Christmas decorations, parades, football games, birthday parties and anything else that gives people pleasure.
Jehovah's Witnesses thrive on bad shit and if the Watchtower tells them that God says the nations have repented they are going to be madder than hell at their god.

Have you ever paid for a bible study?
by little_Socrates inone of the funniest claims made by jw's is that they offer free bible studies.
i have taken countless bible studies and i have lead a fair amount myself.
never once was money involved.. sure if you want an academic level study you will have to pay for it(i am sure though i will not be getting a scholarly level study with local jw).

Yeah, as if anyone would pay for that crap.
JWs freely study with you and all they ask in return is your soul.
Vampires.
That's putting it mildly.
Personally, parasites comes to mind when i see a group of them at Walmart with their tables overflowing with litter a turd.
